[4] By winning Song of the Year, Plum won her first plaque on the Brunswick Street Mall Walk of Fame.

[5] "Backseat of My Mind" was the Plum's first original new music in three years, following her ARIA-winning debut album in 2019 and follows a cover of Powderfinger's "These Days" and Briggs' collaboration "Go to War", both of which were released in 2020.

In a statement, Plum said "I've spent a lot of time in vans (although not recently lol) and I really wanted to write a nostalgic feeling 'driving' song, which I hope we nailed!

Coupling dainty pop licks with syrupy and emotive, indie-esque vocal melodies, Plum maintains a cool calm as she sings lyrics of great reflection.

"[7] Alex Gallagher from Music Feeds said "Opening as a pensive, piano-driven ballad, Plum's latest swells to a soaring chorus about driving forward and abandoning what you need to, 'As I look in the rear view mirror, I leave it behind / In the backseat of my mind'.
